Befriend Solitude
Learning to handle the many moods
and activities of life
requires solitude

Do not let the demands of an overly active world rob your children of their peace.
Constant stimulation without balance of quietness creates chaos.

The child who early befriends solitude becomes one with all that is and inherits everything.
